Diana Rigg is being remembered today by co-workers and colleagues as a `blazingly talented` actress who conquered television, film and the stage. Game of Thrones co stars including Nikolaj Coster-Waldau paid tribute.

`Dame Diana Rigg,` tweeted Thrones co-star Coster-Waldau. `She always raised the bar with her incredible talent, intelligence and wit. An absolute joy and honor to work with. May her soul Rest In Peace.` Game of Thrones co-stars Pedro Pascal, Liam Cunningham, John Bradley and Nathalie Emmanuel joined Coster-Waldau in tweeting their remembrances.

`What to say about Diana Rigg?` tweeted Edgar Wright, who directed Rigg's final film, the upcoming psychological thriller Last Night in Soho. `I could talk about her incredible career, but for now I'll just say as a lifelong fan, it was beyond a thrill to work with her on her final film. She exceeded all my highest expectations, so blazingly talented, fiery & funny. Miss you already Dame D.`

Director Jonathan Kent said, `Diana Rigg's combination of force of personality, beauty, courage and sheer emotional power, made her a great classical actress - one of an astonishing generation of British stage performers. I was so fortunate to direct her in a series of great classical roles - Medea, Phedre - in Ted Hughes' version, specially written for her - Mother Courage and Dryden's Cleopatra. Her dazzling wit and that inimitable voice made her an unforgettable leading figure in British theatre.`
